JUDY

Me neither.

Beat. Then.

ELINOR Why’re you here? JUDY

I’ve lost some people... recently, and-- I didn’t want any more time to go by before I saw you again-- you’re my mother. I’ve missed you. ELINOR I miss you, too. It’s been 15 years. Part of me thought I’d never see you again. I just figured you didn’t want anything to do with me. JUDY

Mom-- I sent you all those letters. I kept trying. I just thought you didn’t want to see me. ELINOR I wrote you back. JUDY You did? ELINOR (covering) Of course. JUDY I-- I never got them. And you never called, so I-- Elinor waves her off like she doesn’t believe her-- ELINOR It’s okay. You don’t have to-- You did the right thing, staying away. And I never worried about you. The world has always loved taking care of you. With that face. A beat, as Judy doesn’t know how to take this in. JUDY How long do you think you’ll be here? This time?
